Angelic scarabs rise in this symbolic showpiece honoring ancient Egypt, when Khepri, the dung beetle god, represented resurrection and the power of a new day. With help from the sun god Re, Khepri inspired the ancients to imagine change, growth, and rebirth.
Inspiring in both theme and design, you'll want this necklace on display when not wearing it. Details to note include inscriptions on the scarabs front & back, marbling in the faux stone, and deco lines in the metalwork. Nothing was overlooked in this fabulous piece by Accessocraft, one of the leaders in statement jewelry drama.
